1st grade Zoo trip

Leave a reply

The first grade field trip was the last day before Thanksgiving break. Jon had asked for the day off so he could help me get all packed up. So we packed up the night before and went on her field trip as chaperons. It was Jon’s first time being a parent on a field trip. 🙂

Kaylee found the tortoise very stinky.IMG_2101

We found the rhino lizard. Basically it’s Liz from The Magic School Bus. Awesome. I may have been more excited about it than the girls….IMG_2114 IMG_2118

We had Kaylee and another girl from her class in our group. She took a bunch of pictures for us. Some turned out. Others not so much. 🙂IMG_2121 IMG_2122 IMG_2124 IMG_2127 IMG_2129 IMG_2131 IMG_2132 IMG_2135 IMG_2142 IMG_2148 IMG_2152

Jon and I filled out the class work while the girls gave us their answers. Kaylee took this one of us working.IMG_2158

The baboons were especially friendly.IMG_2195 IMG_2200 IMG_2213

I do like going on school trips and am so happy Jon got to come on this one. It was worth the late night getting the van loaded for our Utah trip.

My little dude turned 6. We had his Star Wars themed party on Saturday and went out to eat tonight.

We played pin the tie fighter on the Death Star.IMG_1625 IMG_1629 IMG_1630

He requested a Darth Vader pinata. IMG_1631

And Purple cupcakes with Green and Red frosting. He wanted his cupcakes to have all the light saber colors, so he picked the blue stripped liners too. IMG_1632

Uncle Josh brought all his light sabers and the party was mostly just one giant light saber fight.IMG_1635 IMG_1640 IMG_1642 IMG_1663 IMG_1674 IMG_1681 IMG_1683 IMG_1689 IMG_1691 IMG_1704 IMG_1708 IMG_1709 IMG_1711

I just love this little dude of mine so freaking much!IMG_1713 IMG_1715 IMG_1731 IMG_1743 IMG_1750 IMG_1752 IMG_1756 IMG_1758 IMG_1760 IMG_1762 IMG_1771 IMG_1773 IMG_1782 IMG_1783 IMG_1808

He reads his new character book daily. Jodi did awesome when she pick that out for him. He LOVES it.IMG_1817 IMG_1821 IMG_1831 IMG_1836 IMG_1841Jack’ee and Jason got him an air hockey table. They told me it was a mini one when they called to see if that was okay. I herd mini and thought it was the size of their pool table. Can you see the kids pool table underneath. Green box. Ya, I thought it would be little and cute like the pool table. So I said yeas.

I told them they need to reevaluate their definition of the word “mini.” Kaylee and Regan played on it all weekend. IMG_1844 IMG_1848

Monday morning was interesting. Regan was SO excited to be six. And to pick out a restaurant to eat at for dinner.IMG_1851 IMG_1853

Kaylee “I can’t believe my baby brother is growing up! I want him to be little FOREVER!”IMG_1854She was a wreck all day. ALL.DAY. She locked herself in the dance studio bathroom before class to “get all the tears out” so she wouldn’t cry during dinner.  It was pretty funny/sad.IMG_1855 IMG_1857

Regan chose Red Robin. It’s his favorite.

We only had one mini melt down from Kaylee trying to live in denial that her brother is growing up. She did a pretty great job of pulling herself together. And Regan is use to her birthday tears. This last year she had extra siblings to cry over. So thankfully it didn’t phase him or ruin his day. He gave her extra hugs and told her it would be okay several times today.IMG_1861It was a fun night out with the family celebrating our favorite Regan James in the world.IMG_1859
